h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Of course I have armor, I don't want to get shot in the stomach, or the face, that would really suck!

*Isard apears next to Jade, using the wierding way.*

Ever been trained by a Bene Gessiret? (sp?)

*Jade grins like a madwoman (which at this moment, would be an accurate discrption of what she in fact is.) and shakes her head in the negative.*

Nope. *takes a defensive stance*

But am I to understand that you are giving me a compliment...?

*wiggles her eyebrows up and down in a somewhat derisive manner*

If by complement you mean "Isard doesn't want exposed flesh around Jade because she can easily hurt it" then yes. But otherwise I don't know what you would be speaking about.

*Isard feints with his right fist toward Jade's head and throws a punch at Jade's gut with the left hand.*

*The Mech lands near Jade and Isard.*

Hello....mind if i drop in.

*From the left arm of the mech fires 3 missiles. Each of these missiles break away into 4 different missiles all aimed at the 5 Helios helecopters. Each explode as the barrage of missiles hit them.*

Right then where were we....

*The mech turns and faces the two vulcan cannons on the right arm at Isard.*

I suggest you don't move unless you want to look like swiss cheese.

*Once more using the wierding way, Isard breaks off his attack against Jade and seems to teleport below the mech. but infact he just moved very fast. Isard now has his shotgun/grendade launcher combo in his hands and is firing round after round of Armor peircing/directed exlposive warheads into the joints in-between the Mech's legs and torso.*

Steal my Mech will you?!

Yes I did....

*Craxus aims the mech down. Since this mech has been modified by a fellow named Rusty *

Time to die you fool....

*The mechs huge vulcan cannos begin to twirl around as they release a huge load of bullets into Isards chest.*

*Isard, using his shiney new anti-ballistic shield escapes death, or even pain. (Terranic R&D has developed them, and Isard has got one, shame they aren't very available right now, so no villians would be found in possetion of them as they are all located in the Terranic HQ or in Isard's backpack) Isard jumps up onto the Vulcan arm and starts shooting more armor peircing rounds into the leg joints. When the grenade clip is empty, he jams an EMP grenade deep into the gattling arm's gears and it detonates as soon as he has jumped off the mech.*

I should tell you, that mech doesn't like EMPs and no one has anti EMP tech.

*Just as Isard jumps off Craxus notices that Isard put a EMP gernade deep in the left arm. Just before it trigered Craxus dumped the arm. Literally the arm dropped off from the mech. And in a split second the mech is 100 feet in the arm from the boosters.*

Well there goes one arm.....

Hds, try and keep to the plot. Don't use Bene Gesserit, please. And Jade, I'll have to ask you to lay off the majic by the same account, though inhuman skill is fine. And the Mag-sheild is automotive only, along with the shotgun only running sabot shells. Aim for the cockpit, otherwise, in this instance, running is a good thing. This thing's being rewound to posting #44, and you can pick back up there.

Oh, and C, the mech isn't for fine tuned combat. It's got firepower, but it'll still have blind spots. It IS terranic build. Sorry to have to come down so hard, but rules is rules.

[A car arrives, and five figures get out; they're all about the same age. Roll call time!]

[Yar Kramer: wearing his normal attire (red jacket, black shirt, blue jeans), as well as Gundam? Pants, which are blue-grey armor over his jeans.]

[Mackenzie Robinson: a brown-haired young woman in a green sweater. She's the reason Yar has his danger-sense and mild telekinesis.]

[Ryu Akbar: blue-haired and looking slightly unstable.]

[Ryu Hoichi: a short, Japanese-looking kid with one hand in his pocket; there's a bulge that's just the right size for a deck of cards.]

[Samuel Jameston Eckardt: Tall, dark hair, surly, and gives the impression that he likes saying swear words more than "please."]

[Yar] Whoo, looks like we got here just in time.

[Mackenzie] Akbar, are you going to try one of your tricks?

[Ryu Akbar] Maybe ... I'll see what happens first ... heh heh heh ...

*Looks up to the skys and grins as the helicopters are engulfed by the explosion of craux's missles.*

*Beings heading towards the clearing where the others are fighting, but at slowed pace and with a slight limp, as he caught a bullet from one of the helicopters in the left leg.*

[Radio]: Craxus, I'm going to cause a little more mayhem in the city while you're playing with the Navy.

*Stumbling out of a top secret research laboratory in th eruined mech lab comes a surpisingly average and un-noteworthy looking person. It would not draw anyone's attention save for the prototype tech suit that he is carrying out.*

*cough* WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO MY LAB!!!

*He suddenly collapses not but a few feet away from Yar and appears in need of serious medical attention*

[Yar] Right. Mackenzie, you deal with him. Me ... I'm gonna go find an old friend.

[Ryu Akbar] Just tell me where to aim ...

[Mackenzie kneels by the "normal guy" and starts using her psionics to a) search for and extract any bullets or debris in his wounds, b) once that's done, hold the wounds closed, and c) speed up his body's repair systems.]

[Yar and Ryu Akbar jog over to where Yar can see Skullock. Ryu pulls what appears to be a small jar out of his pocket. Yar points.]

[Ryu Akbar] Nyar har har harley harl harl!

[He hurls the jar towards Skullock. What exactly is inside the jar is up for debate, and whether it hits Skullock is up to his player, but its effect upon impact is best described as, "Somebody set up us the bomb."]

KABOOM!

*Healing and finally coming-to, Jonathan speaks in a small wisper*

Help me with the Tech I was carrying. It was a suit that will link with my nervous system and use me for it's CPU. Once it is online I can help my self recover much faster.

*feebily reaches toward the scattered pieces of Tech that he was carrying*

...I wasn't aware that I've one any amount of majic, at lkeast not since the first couple pages of the thread. I'm an elf, ergo fast, and yes, I can dodge attacks with the speed, of well, bloody lightning. So yeah. I've been good, Myst.

*frowns at Isard for ignoring herm simply because her sworn protector has jumped in and is ifring things in his general direction*

You know, this really is just par for the bloody course? everyone does this to me. What is it with you boys and your technology...?

*she spies what she believes to be a scientist, doesn't recognise him, and registers him mentaly in her brain file for "enemies that i ought to rough up a bit. She makes a split second decision to jump kick him somewhere in the region of his chest to cool off her anger for Isard, thinking, hey this quest is going to be on for a long time anyway, I'll have a chance to whack that Isard fellow yet, and dually, kicking this guy for no apparent reasgon might just get my bounty up a bit higher. So /yes/.*

*She turns toward this scientist (LEWS, DARLING, I'M ABOUT TO KICK YOU!!!)and jumps at him, her right root extended toward his chest*

That was a jump kick to the chest. I suggest you either stand there and take it, or do something inteligent like /move to the side/ or something. k?

*rolls out of the way of the kick and puts on the final peace of the Techsuit*

May I have this dance?

*uses the techs abilities to distort time and moves toward Jade at inhuman speed*

*Suddenly, HDS's super car bursts through the trees, its anti-ballistic shield running flawlessly. A missile port pops out of the hood, and HDS dives into the rear compartment. The missile port fires a barradium missile at the mech's legs, it impacts and vaporises them.*

All anarchist hippy nuts are to lay down their weapons now! Heros, you are more than welcome to keep your weapons with you! 3 seconds to comply.

I was fully prepared to battle you hand to hand and foot to foot were it not for the interference of this mech stealing jerk *jerking his thumb over his shoulder to indicate the mech stealing jerk behind him* (who seems to think he will ever be able to catch me un-awares)

Just remember, Terranic stuff goofs now and then...

Yume...

*Jade gracefully sidesteps*

You may have the speed of something other than human, but I sense in you the weakness of their race.

*she raises an eyebrow, apparently unamused, and vaugely wonderinf if this scientist notices that he's just dropped everything that he had cradled so lovingly in his arms

Unless you prove yourself worthy of my /time/, I believe that I shall continue on with master Isard.

"Yume" Is japanese for "dream." It is pronounced just as "you may." Making it a bit of a pun. Jade is saying "dream on," in reply to "May I have this dance."
